Rochester, New York, is many things: a center of business, a place of
emerging technologies, and a city possessing a quality of life that is
one of the best in the nation. The third largest city in New York State,
it’s a place of landmark history and cultural diversity. Rochester was
an early home to abolitionists and a major stop on the Underground
Railroad. Susan B. Anthony was arrested in her Rochester home for her
historic decision to vote. Frederick Douglass lived and published The
North Star in Rochester. The founder of Rochester-based Eastman Kodak
Company George Eastman is heralded as the father of modern popular
George Eastman House
photography and the inventor of motion picture film. Founded here,
Bausch and Lomb manufactured 4,000,000 pounds of glass between
the bombing of Pearl Harbor and August 1944.
Today, Rochester is still one of the nation’s most engaging cultural
centers and a hub of entrepreneurial activity.
The museums and galleries offer a plethora of cultural activities
including exhibit openings, hands-on demonstrations, and world-class
lectures. While you are in Rochester, be sure to visit the Memorial Art
Gallery and ARTISANworks, a one-of-a-kind venue featuring work both
by local artists and household names in a 60,000-square-foot former
ammunition plant. The galleries, featuring both local and international
artists, are too numerous to list! You’ll see a few of them during the Gallery Tour events. Check the
VisitRochester visitor’s guide for an overview of the area galleries.
Rochester is the gateway for many wonderful day trips across New York State. The
Corning Museum of Glass, for example, is about an hour and a half from downtown
Rochester. While you are there, be sure to check out the Rockwell Museum of Western
Art. Another short ride from downtown Rochester are the famous Finger Lakes,
home to fantastic wineries, and even more fantastic scenery. Niagara Falls is a quick
trip from downtown Rochester, but don’t forget your passport if you’d like to see the
view from Canada.
Entertainment in Rochester covers a wide spectrum: from a world-class
philharmonic orchestra to top-notch regional theatre, from major Broadway touring
productions to small theatre groups, and from bright lights and pulsing disco to cozy
jazz houses. Restaurants are around every corner and are ready to treat you to great
Rochester hospitality.
Susan B. Anthony House
We look forward to showing you all Rochester has to offer and to welcoming you to
the 2013 ISGB Gathering!

Share your glass beads with the world!
Photograph your work for the Annual
ISGB Postcard Project! These postcards
are used to inspire and capture the
attention of bead lovers, jewelry
designers, artists, and collectors. It is
easy to participate and great fun!
Simply have postcards made from
a photo of your work and donate 200
of those postcards to the ISGB. All of
the donated postcards are sorted and
packaged, and offered for sale at the
Gathering. Many people collect these
from year to year and they are always
one of our most popular items that sell
out quickly.
Each participant in the project
will receive a complimentary box of
postcards. Don’t miss this chance to get
your work seen by a broader audience.
Each artist is responsible for having his
or her own cards printed.
Remember:
•Finished postcards must be no larger
than 4.5"x 6".
•All postcards must be new each year.
Previous project cards will not be
accepted.
•Please include your name, address,
telephone number, and email address

The Silent Auction is an important
event for our organization and for our
fundraising efforts. We encourage you
to donate a bead or bead-related item
to the Silent Auction. Remember, you
do not have to attend the Gathering to
donate to this great event. As a bidder,
this is a wonderful opportunity to add
to your collection of beads and to help
support the ISGB educational programs.
Please send your donation before the
conference begins. Receiving them in
advance of the Gathering allows the
wonderful volunteers that work on this
event the opportunity to document
your donation, complete the bid
sheets, and prepare the auction display
boards before everyone arrives at the
conference. We thank you for your help.
If necessary, last-minute donations can
be collected during conference on-site
check in.
Please include your name, the retail
price of your donation, and a brief
description of the item(s). Please send
your donation, to be received no later
than June 30, to the address below:
The Release-A-Bead project continues
to expand glass bead experiences all
over the world. Through the donations
of ISGB beadmakers, people from
California to New Zealand have found
beads and posted on the Release-A-Bead
website at www.releaseabead.com.
This summer, we will release beads in
the Rochester area to generate interest
and excitement prior to the Gathering.
Fifty of these beads will include
“Golden Tickets,” which will give the
lucky finder a free entry to our Saturday,
July 27, Bead Bazaar!
Share your love of glass beads with
a stranger – maybe they will fall in
love just like you did! Please send your
bead(s), along with the form available

Enjoy One-Stop Shopping
One of the most exciting things about
the Gathering is the opportunity to visit

Technical Vendors. This is a hands-on
shopping experience where you can see,
touch, and get serious about the tools,
glass, and information that you need.
All ISGB members who want to be
commercial or technical vendors must
be Corporate Level members or be
required to pay the non-member rate
for exhibit space.
If you are interested in exhibit space,
please contact:
Do you have a new product, show
special, or something you think would
be of interest to our attendees at the
Gathering? We can help you get your
information out to all conference
participants by including it in each
registration packet. The fee for this
great advertising opportunity is
$115. Our attendees read all of the
information in the packet – advertising
can make a big impact!
Send 350 copies of your insert and
a check made payable to ISGB to the
address below to be received no later
than July 1, 2013. We ask that you note
on your check, “conference packet

would be greatly appreciated.

The ISGB –Beads of Courage Community Project
Deadline for Donation: June 30, 2013
All Creatures Big and Small
The ISGB – Beads of Courage
Community Project is a wonderful
opportunity to exhibit your work
(beads are not for sale) as well as give a
little something back to the Rochester
community. This non-juried show is
open to all ISGB members and is a
wonderful way for new beadmakers to
participate in their first show, as well
as a good opportunity to present their
work in response to a specific theme.
The theme for this year’s show is All
Creatures Big and Small. What an exciting
excuse to unleash your imagination:
sculpture, murrini, and more.
Each artist is limited to one entry and
beads will be on display throughout
the Gathering. We will once again
have Attendees’ Choice awards. The
two artists receiving the two highest
number of votes will each be awarded a
gift certificate!
In the spirit of giving, we plan to
present our project to the Golisano
Children’s Hospital on Sunday at the
close of the Gathering. Golisano has
been ranked one of the nation’s best
in Pediatric Orthopedics in U.S. News
& World Report’s 2010 edition of
America’s Best Children’s Hospitals.
Please ship your bead in a wellwrapped, sturdy box and be certain
to insure your package.
All entries must be received before

This year’s juried show for the Gathering
will once again feature pendants. This
event is open to all ISGB members
and offers a wonderful opportunity to
present your best work in response to a
specific theme.
As beadmakers, we often become
complacent in our day-to-day torch
sessions. We become comfortable with
certain techniques and designs. As we
do, our vision begins to fade and the
passion smolders. This is a challenge to
you to rediscover your vision. Play with
new techniques, wild ideas, and think
outside the box. We encourage you to
take this creative journey, whether you
are a novice or have years of experience,
open the door to creative discoveries
and show us what you find!
All beads must be made into singular
pendants and need to be strung on
something for display. For example, use
a short piece of ribbon, leather, cord, or
chain. Up to six pieces may be submitted
if you are accepted into the show. All
pieces must be for sale. An inventory
list with artist contact information and
retail price(s) MUST be included with
pieces when they are submitted for
the show. No exceptions will be made.
Selected artists will receive 50 percent
of the retail price of the sold items.
Payments and any unsold pieces will be
returned via insured mail.
If SELECTED for the show, please send
your bead pendants, retail price list,
artist information, and shipping address
by June 30, 2013 to:

Indelible: A Collection of Personal Narratives Expressed in Art Glass Beads
In everyone's lives are moments that stand out, moments that are remembered more
clearly than others. What makes these moments unforgettable may vary greatly.
Maybe it was doing something for the first time – or for the last time. Sometimes,
all it can take to transport us back to that moment is a smell, a word, or a sound, and
we can play that memory over and over again in our mind’s eye. Done in conjunction
with our recent 20th anniversary, this exhibition highlights the diversity in one-ofa-kind bead and jewelry design from artists around the world. Indelible artists were
asked to pluck out the details from their most memorable or special experiences

Awakening the Vision – Creative Discoveries
As beadmakers we often become complacent in our day-to-day torch sessions. We
become comfortable with certain techniques and designs. As we do, our vision
begins to fade and the passion smolders. Artists were asked to challenge themselves
to rediscover their vision, play with new techniques, and explore unique ideas outside
of their normal creative circle. Whether you are a novice beadmaker or have years of
experience, we invite you to enjoy this showcase of new artistic journeys. You might
just open the door to creative discoveries in your own work! For information on how
to submit an entry, please see page 7.
Geometric – A Juxtaposition of the Circle and the Square
Many endeavors in beadmaking focus on creating a shape that is circular or square
in one dimension or another. Both the circle and the square are utilized in so many
shapes and techniques ranging from spherical ball beads, donuts, and discs to
cubes, focal pendants, and rectangular bricks. Artists were invited to submit a bead
featuring a circular or square shape either in construction or surface decoration. This
eclectic array of geometric shapes highlights dimensional artworks inspired by the
infinite circle and the edgy square. The angles and spheres for this juried show were
endless! Be certain not to miss these innovative, small treasures.

The Silly Bead Contest: The Wizard of Oz Goes Steampunk
A favorite event every year and Rochester promises to be one of the best. This year’s
Silly Bead Contest is all about imagination and combination. We challenge you to
create something amazing in glass. And metal. And mixed media. Oh My! The sky’s
the limit for a miniature masterpiece which incorporates characters or scenes from
the iconic Wizard of Oz movie, with a steampunk twist.
Imagine flying monkeys with wind-up keys; riveted metal-clad Munchkins; the tin
woodsman made out of clockwork and gears; the wicked witch in a leather jacket
and aviator goggles.
The possibilities are endless, skill level is completely irrelevant, and fun is
mandatory. The only qualifications to participate are that you a) attend the
Gathering, b) make something from glass and whatever else you find lying around,
and c) plan a really good bribe for the judges. You might just take home one of our
fabulous prizes. And one for your little dog, too!

friday 7 / 26
schedule of events
The Bead Bazaar will be the center of all
activity during the day on Saturday. Artists
attending the conference may choose to
experience selling their work by having a
table at The Bead Bazaar. This annual event
is a wonderful and fun-filled opportunity
to sell beads and finished jewelry to both
Gathering attendees and the general public.
For more information, please see page 8.
The Gathering Banquet
This evening is about special events for our organization! Join your friends and fellow
artists for dinner. What a great opportunity to sit together, talk, laugh, visit with
other friends at adjoining tables, and have a nice dinner, too.
Hall of Flame Award
Since 2002, this prestigious honor has been given to a long-term member of our
organization whose contribution deserves special recognition. The Hall of Flame
Award sets a standard of excellence in the world of glass beadmaking.
Live Auction
The evening ends with the Live Auction, filled with excitement and fun. And
remember how very important the Live Auction is to the ISGB educational programs.
We need your support and the Live Auction is a great way to give. Bid often, bid high,
and take home some incredible items.
